The beauty of the Magnum though is its' rarity. R/Ts and SXTs are plentiful, but the SRT is a rare sled. It's also one hell of a sleeper. Pull up nex... Show moret to that unsuspecting Mustang, Camaro or hell, even a 911 for that matter and they are in for a wake up call. With 425hp / 420tq. on the tap from the 6.1L HEMI, this big 4000 "Station Wagon" will pull 0-60 in 5 secs., top out at 170 mph and go from 60-0 in 116 feet! Those are IMPRESSIVE #'s for ANY vehicle, but simply unheard of on a wagon. Show Less

Keep in mind that is also a vehicle that you can actually use. Need to go away for a weekend, then hell, just open the deck lid and you've got 71 square ... Show morefeet of cargo space. You've also got some of the best seats in the industry as both front and rear are leather with suede inserts and highly bolstered to keep you in place. If there is a downside, it would be fuel economy. Around town we're talking about 13-15 mpg and hwy being around 19-21 mpg. This translates to roughly 250-270 per tank around town and 300-320 on the hwy. No too bad though considering what this thing will also pull almost .9g on the skidpad. All in all this is has been a GREAT vehicle to own, it's big, fast and extremely comfortable. Now, can you mod this thing... well sure, you can mod everything. By my advice, if you want it, would be to simply leave the damn thing along, get in and just drive the piss out of it. Yes, it's that good. Show Less

This my 2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8. I was looking for something with style, power and presence and did not want to go the route of an SUV. The more I looked, the... Show more more I kept coming back to the Magnum. Production ran from 2006-2008 on the SRT versions and in all honesty they didn't sell nearly as well as Chryslers others SRT cars like the 300, Jeep or the Charger. Show Less

Make sure though that if you are looking for a used one, because keep in mind they went out of production in '08, there are things to look for. They do h... Show moreave some front end issues. Lower ball joints are notorious on all LX platform cars for going bad as are the bushings in the strut towers. This is not that big a deal and one that can be easily remedied. Other issues would to check the car over CAREFULLY - remember, these are performance machines and most are driven as such. Check the front bumper cover as people are notorious for getting them hung up on curbs and ripping them off of damaging the brake cooling ducts that hidden in there. Also, make sure go on a good test drive as the SRT8 Magnums are also good at warping front rotors. Again, not a big deal, but something that you want to look for before purchasing one. Show Less
